These are perfect in all situations where you need the lead to get extra grip on the bottom, thanks to its knobbly surface.

This makes the Big Grippa ideal for fishing in running water, when laying out rigs by boat at extreme distances where underwater currents can be a problem, or when casting on slopes, for example at island edges or gravel bars, as it stays in place much better than many other lead shapes.

In addition to carp fishing, both in the UK and on the continent, the Big Grippa is also very popular among anglers targeting barbel and chub.
